Video 3 - Graphixia Comics Forum Conference Panel

Our team discuss the significance of blogging to the comics scene today as an alternative to academic publishing, presenting Graphixia and other grassroots blogs as critical analogues to small press comic publishers. Our belief is that simply making comics scholarship one more conventional academic discipline is a mistake; rather, we should harness the DIY, “punk” elements of comics scholarship to create a new kind of academic experience in line with 21st century developments in global society and technology.
